Factors Affecting the Heat Resistance of Clostridium perfringens Spores
… a high ratio of cortex peptidoglycan relative to germ cell wall were necessary components of a highly heat-resistant spore. In order to test these observations, we constructed two mutant strains. The first could not achieve the necessary level of core dehydration and rapidly lysed in solution. The …

Requirements for Compartmentalization of Penicillin-Binding Proteins during Sporulation in Bacillus subtilis
… is regulated in the two differentiated cells in Bacillus subtilis, the mother cell and the forespore, by coordinated expression of different sigma factors that recognize specific promoters in each compartment. The functional and compartmental specificity of individual penicillin-binding …

Structural Analysis of Bacillus subtilis Spore Peptidoglycan During Sporulation
… spore PG suggest the following: a) the germ cell wall PG is synthesized first next to the inner forespore membrane; b) cross-linking is relatively high in the first 10% of spore PG synthesized; b) a rapid decrease in cross-linking is observed during synthesis of the next 20% of the spore …

Studies of the Class A High-Molecular Weight Penicillin-Binding Proteins in Bacillus subtilis
… the structural element of the bacterial cell wall. These proteins, known as penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), are identified through the presence of conserved motifs within their functional domains. The Class A high-molecular weight PBPs are bifunctional, performing the …
